The only explanation I have for the DR is effectively something like natural armor or something like a construct's DR... maybe it should be natural armor instead of DR...That's unfortunate, the default abilities are cool, you just need more of them. So hitting a live creature with it does no damage, you don't get to flurry, AND you only do a d6 damage? no monk in his right ming would take that. They'll do better without it. So the idea is you hit a solid object, the one you hit takes no damage, but something touching it x distance behind takes it instead?Then it makes the DR the class gets instead of AC become useless. And where you're rooted in place, and can't move, you esentially would have to choose between a dex bonus to AC or the ability. effectively giving you an AC of 10? maybe I'm missing something.I think for a higher rank it could increase maybe. that would be awesome.Of course, you could say the monk gives the attacker a friendly push along the way when he sidesteps as well since its a deflection, otherwise why doesnt the attacker just stop, right?Honestly, I don't think PrC is the way to go. a PrC that uses a different stat than whatever school the monk starts in would make the monk very weak, for one, and 2, that should totally just be a regular school, you just need abilities to flesh it out. it's totally awesome. Anything with a save or die blows though. Worst mechanic ever. However, a high level martial arts based petrification ability might be sweet. Have some paralysis, partial paralysis, maybe an attack that causes unconsciousness (non- magically induced sleep (works on elves)) something that disables the use of limbs, maybe something that renders the opponent flat footed for x time, etc. Sweet.It's for the best <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" /> Put in something that gives you free attacks of opportunity against them somehow instead. And when I say free, I mean have it not count towards the standard attack of opportunity. And be triggered by somethign that wouldnt normally trigger it.Yeah, how many do they get? what do they lose for the extras? I'd probably drop this and give them something defensive. I dunno what exactly, but something. maybe an ability that allows dodging an attack in such a way that you end up Behind the opponent. Or a dodge ability that lowers their to-hit by 2 every miss from exertion. Cumulatively. and them get them back at a rate of 1 per round. Like as an expanded version of the existing dodge that you can take higher. - or come up with some other non-extra attack ability. I kindof see wind as being less about attacking and more about movility. and maybe nonlethal things. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f635.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt="O.o" title="Er... what?    O.o"  data-smilie="12"data-shortname="O.o" />This, I like.</blockquote>
